President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, former deputy senate president, Ike Ekweremadu and Senator Solomon Adeola, have urged Muslim faithful to pray against further spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The lawmakers stated this in their separate statements on Thursday, to felicitate with Nigerians and the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of this year’s Eid El Kabir.
“As we celebrate the feast of sacrifice with worship, I enjoin us to be mindful of the risk of the COVID-19 pandemic and adhere strictly to the safety protocols prescribed by our public health authorities.” He also called on the Federal Government to take immediate steps to end the killings in the country, warning that Nigeria was fast becoming a killing field.
“It is also not lost on us that this is a very dire time for Nigeria, as our Muslim brethren and the nation celebrate Sallah in a state of grave apprehension, with many of them displaced by the worsening insecurity.
